Yeah, most of those bartending schools are often a waste of $$$... tough getting a bar job anyways... I tried a program called American Mixology or something... basically an at home ordeal that teaches you professional bartending skills for less than $100... definitely worth it so you don't look like a chump trying to get a gig. here's the url: www.drinksmadeeasy.com good luck, much more fun on that side of the bar!!!
